I have actually wanted to be able to run a full job (that I knew would be rather small) on one of my incremental tapes as I was adding a job to the rotation, and I was unable to do so -- full jobs ALWAYS run on my full pull, as that is the way my system is configured. Sounds like you're looking to do this as well. I don't remember what part of the config it's in (Job, Schedule, or otherwise), but it can be done. =R [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > In the message dated: Fri, 27 Oct 2006 11:18:50 +0200, > The pithy ruminations from Arno Lehmann on > <Re: [Bacula-users] 2 full backups in a row> were: > => Hi, > => > => On 10/26/2006 3:47 PM, Raphael Perrin wrote: > => > > => > Hi > => > > => > Here is my situation. > => > > => > Once a month I run a full backup on a "FULL" pool. > => > Then the monday after I run an Incremental backup on an "INCREMENTAL" > pool and > => > of course it first run a FULL backup which take more than one night.
